Interactive On-Line Evaluation of Robot Motion Control

In English This paper presents a new real-time architecture for motion control of industrial robots. The new control system obtained has two main advantages: first it provides a total open control architecture and the second advantage is the simplicity and the interactivity of the platform developed. Experimental evaluation of a passivity-based control scheme shows the benefits of the architecture which is unique in the sense that open and advanced control can be combined with built-in safety logic as required in industrial applications.
